Quinault Strawberry Roots provide a newer everbearing strawberry variety developed by Washington State University and is prized for its outstanding flavor and unique ability to produce fruit on unrooted runners. This versatile plant is ideal for containers and hanging baskets, while also serving beautifully as ground cover or a border along walks and paths. Self-pollinating and highly productive, Quinault delivers delicious berries up to two inches in diameter from June until frost.

• Everbearing types provide smaller, continuous yields in June, summer, and fall, ideal for fresh eating throughout the season
• Pinch back during first year of growth and expect a bountiful harvest the following spring
